    Do you need to have these identified for some purpose or is it just for fun?

    Probably his 24 hour dial LeCoultre ( as Wally Schirra had one )... but I wasn't sure as it looks like there're buttons on the left side of the case? Could be shadows...
    Edit:
    Found photos of Glenn, Schirra and Shepard wearing a 24 hour dial LeCoultre...
    Even Aldrin might have used one (this is a June 1964 jungle training photo) ?

    We"re still trying to find out which chronograph ( Reverse Panda with black/white sector bezel ) NASA Skylab astronaut Gerald Carr was wearing in 1971 & 72 and even took this chronograph aboard Skylab-4 beteen November 1973 and February 1974...
    ::confused2::

    Edit: photo check up reveals that this 1970s chronograph: ::book::
    1. has a light blue reverse-panda dial
    2. has a bezel with 2 sectors: half black and half white

    46 years ago, after 84 days aboard the Skylab space station the 3 astronauts were recovered by USS New Orleans...
    Both William Pogue and Gerald Carr had grown a beard and the latter was clearly wearing an interesting reverse-panda blue dial chronograph...
    Any help ID this wristwatch is truly appreciated
